This review is from: The Atlas of the Medieval World (Hardcover)

Reminiscent of the Eyewitness Explorers Series, illustrations fill every page in this graphically beautiful series. Short descriptions give a concise eclectic overview of topics. A nice supplement to encyclopedic reference works with broader and more in depth coverage, but which may be lacking in illustrations. Ideal for young or reluctant readers because there are so many pictures calculated to capture student interest. Includes Index and maps. Series includes the following titles: Atlas of World Cultures, Atlas of the Classical world, Atlas of the Bible Lands, and Atlas of the 20th Century.
